• Issued by approved VPOs • Issued to individuals who perform fair value measurements for
financial reporting purposes• Requirements to obtain the CEIV credential discussed in
subsequent slides

• Requirements to obtain the credential include:• Experience - Minimum 3,000 hours of fair value measurements• Education – Undertake education offered by the VPOs on fair
